Still frustrating. I generally try to make my passwords all lowercase in case I need to type them (especially on a phone). But a lot of places don’t allow that.
No offense but I’m kinda happy they dont allow that. Its horrible entropy a better approach for manual entry is using a randomly generated passphrase (6+ words should be enough with a special character as a seperator if needed) or again using the autofill of a password manager, there are many available for mobile devices. I recommend checking out bitwarden for anyone new to password managers
If I’m typing on a computer keyboard, typing words is easier than random letters, but on a phone it doesn’t make much of a difference. What I end up doing is typing my passphrase into my password manager on the computer, and then typing the password on there into my phone.
I do have a password manager app for my phone, but then I have to type the whole passphrase into it so I don’t use it unless necessary.
